Trump: What people don’t understand is.. the country eats the tariff, the company eats the tariff and it’s not passed along at all… China is eating the tariffs

Leavitt: “If this story proves anything, it proves that Democrats and their propagandists in the mainstream media know how to fabricate, orchestrate, and disseminate a misinformation campaign quite well. And there’s arguably no one in the media who loves manufacturing and pushing hoaxes more than Jeffrey Goldberg.”

Senator Lee introduced the "Restraining Judicial Insurrectionists Act of 2025," which establishes a three-judge panel to swiftly review injunctions or declaratory relief against the President of the United States and the Executive Branch. @tvheidihatch kutv.com/news/local/mike-lee…

Elon Musk: "We will make mistakes. We won't be perfect ... so for example, with USAID, one of the things we accidentally canceled very briefly was ebola prevention."

Greene: We are completely broke. If the U.S. government operated like a private business—which, by the way, it should—it would be entirely bankrupt and out of business. The U.S. government is not a charity.

I take very seriously the role that the Senate has in the Constitution for advice and consent—and have spent significant time reviewing President Trump’s nominees, including his Defense Secretary pick @PeteHegseth. I’ve met with Mr. Hegseth, talked with many people who have known him in different roles, carefully watched his confirmation hearing, and even read his writings to better understand who he is. While there are actions from his past that give me pause, I carefully weighed these concerns against his qualifications, leadership style, and commitment to bolstering the world’s most respected military. I am confident Mr. Hegseth shares my vision of ensuring our armed services are prepared to meet the evolving challenges of the 21st century. Our military is need of a change agent who will challenge the status quo, demand transparency and accountability, and ensure our allies and strategic partners have confidence in America’s commitment and capability to stand for freedom. My role in the Senate’s process is to ensure the President has a Cabinet that will help him succeed and serve the nation effectively. After careful consideration, I have decided to vote in favor of Pete Hegseth’s nomination to be Secretary of Defense.

Greene: We'll be looking at everything from government-funded media programs like NPR that spread nothing but Democrat propaganda.. I'd like to talk to the governors and mayor of sanctuary states and cities and explain why they deserve federal dollars
